In managing retail employees, it is a good practice to:

•
Be proactive in sensitizing and developing staff people skills through regular management Programmes such as capacity building and age diversity programmes, so they are abreast with changing trends in the business environment
•
Establish good communication channels among the various levels of employees as well as the external environments
